Now that we have watched Kenneth Anger's seminal Avant-Garde short, "Scorpio Rising." I want/require you to post your critical response to the film. If you want a touch more background info look it up on imdb or a quick synopsis on wikipedia. Post now, post often. EDIT: As you know, we watched TPB instead. Same Rules apply.
As advertised, we will be reading Walter Benjamin's "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction" on Wednesday.
If you are feeling particularly on the ball, you might want to think about what this essay has to do with Film etc.
Alright, I have decided that I don't want to do the Patriot Act Essay for Monday so if you haven't already, don't bother. I will be bringing a short piece in that we will be reading as a class.
If you require journal fodder: Write about what you liked or disliked or both in the last film you saw.
